will: good morning and well to "fox & friends" on this saturday morning in the middle of madness in march. historic upset yesterday. only the second timest the ever happened that a 16-seed took down a 1 in the ncaa tournament. fairleague kick cannenson busted every bracket in america save one. the one bracket that was busted before that upset was that of president joe biden who picked the university of arizona to win it all, and just the day before yesterday number 2 seed arizona lost in their opening game as well. so there you have it. the day after st. patrick's day and already half of america's bracket is busted. will cain, rachel campos duffy and joey jones if for -- in for pete hegseth. joey: for everybody but purdue,

it's a miracle. you put five on the court and whoever wins, wins, right? will: it really is cool. if you love underdog stories, that's what this month was about. there was a pregame speech, i know you were intimately tuned into this, rachel, yesterday. rachel: yeah. i talked about it on jesse watters last night. will: it was awesome. we're going the make history, we're going to do this. and then they did. rachel: well, i don't have a lot to say about sports -- [laughter] i want to wish a happy st. patrick's day to the sean patrick duffy, that was yesterday, and also my son, patrick duffy. you marry an irish-american -- my brother patrick, his brother patrick, so happy st. patrick's day to the everyone out there. also i want to note that there was a picture in the national anthem that i want to pull up. that was this week, i was in kentucky at -- that said i was turning 50.

that was because the national right to life organization in kentucky turned 50, and i'm there with a.g. lynn fitch who is the attorney general from mississippi who brought the case of roe, the cod the case -- the dodd case forward, so an historic, amazing figure she is. and what an amazing anniversaries, all these pro-life organizations after just 50 years celebrating and feeling like their life is worthwhile and had wonderful results. wonderful time. will: congratulations. joey: well, biden's bracket was busted, i guess maybe his racket is busted ooh the, does that work? rachel: definitely a racket. joey: biden's going to say there's nothing to see here, and the media that support him are going to belief it, and the rest of us are going to the say, but wait a minute, because there's evidence coming out that maybe you and your family have been getting money, and maybe that

money was for something. as biden reacted yesterday to being questioned about evidence from the house, this is what he had to the say. >> -- the house gop -- the. [inaudible] >> hunter biden's business associates turned over a million dollars to family members -- >> that's not true. will: it is true,, and it's committeddedly true. hunter biden's attorneys said hunter biden actually received legitimate may notes which was disif possessorred concern dispersed. they wrote he's a private citizen with every right to pursue his own business endeavors. he joined business partners with a privately owned, legitimate energy company many in china. hunter received a portion of his good faith seed funds which he

shared with his uncle and hallie biden with who he was involved with at the time and sharing expenses. there's a lot in there. you know where i would start or? what do you mean by good faith seed funds? that's a way to wrap up a payment in the lin are go, the patina of business concern the. [laughter] and the only thing that matters is what was the business, what was hunter biden's connection and what connections or quid pro quo or money was involved when it comes to joe biden. rachel: yeah. i mean, you spread out these payments if you don't want any to detect it, right in and you also don't want -- for tax reasons, want people to deeducate the it. st the important to the note, i think, there he is with hallie. is she an energy expert? i'm not sure. hunt hunter's not either. i doubt that jim is. and i don't think the big guy is either. this is a racket, as you said, joe by, and it has all the markings of one. and it's the really interesting, we're, you know, joe biden

saying i don't know anything about it, but it's so obvious what's happening here. what's really frustrating is the lack of curiosity by democrats. i mean, because what this says is, it says a lot about his loyalty to our country, joe biden's and his family's, which he likes to tout as a good family. so here is brett pullman, he's a former federal prosecutor. he just says like we're all saying, follow the money. enter come on. look at the movement of money. we were taught that in the beginning of our training, to investigate financial fraud cases just watch the money. and where it moves. and all you have to have is a few people conspiring to move money under the radar to avoid axes or to avoid -- taxes or to avoid reporting requirements, and you have a crime family. you also have admissions by his son, hunter biden, in e-mails

and correspondence with other family members. the entire family may be conspiring to bring money in from both russia and china and to do it under the radar. crime families operate that way, not regular, everyday families. and especially not families that are loyal to the united states. and and families that are in positions of power. joey: i want to go back real quick to when president biden was asked, he had a yen win look of confusion on his face which tells me how much does he know as far as what's out there. like, is he even getting updated? did he even know that hunter's attorneys had responded? and i guess what bothered me or troubled or puzzled me most was that they said privately-owned, legitimate chinese energy company. of i'm just curious, does such a thing actually exist, or do they expect us to believe that such a thing exists in a country like china? rachel: yeah. and, joey, just as joe biden as president is now pushing policies that are making us more

competent on the chinese in terms of -- dependent on the chinese in terms of energy as well with the evs, also interesting to note is that jill biden, a lot of people are isn'ting that the another name is going to come forward, who else cot payments -- joey: the other biden. rachel: many people suspectst the jill biden. joe biden and jill biden both had keys to hunter biden's office that he shared with a chinese energy guy. so it all looks very us pirchlts by the way, i call my mom every single day. i'm latina, that's what we co, and she doesn't have a key to my office. what is going on there? i think it could be jill. will: the money went through several different holding companies from china to europe, back to america. i believe at least in the a case of hunter biden, it probably passed through at least, i don't know, two or three corporate entities. it's not the way legitimate business is usually run. and the new york post asks some very important questions.

here's the cover, it says coward. and then the questions follow. what favors kid do your family do for china? how will you respond to russia's attacksesome why won't you fix the border crisisesome biden again runs away from questions, not just those about his family dealings. rachel: yeah. joey: the thing that will bother me is that the media will probably, and i say the media, the liberal media, will call this a conspiracy, continue to frame those that ask these questions -- i mean, the white house is already saying, oh, you're attacking a widow. i didn't know that losing your husband that you couldn't ever do anything wrong or be questioned about it. this is based on evidence coming forth every single day, and i think anyone should be asking is the president of the united states vulnerable or, as you would say, compromised. will: there's no more adult word in the english language, no no world with less cut to it in the english language than

conspiratorial, perhaps only to be outdone by the word racist. rachel: or misinformation, that's at another one. we're going to stay on this story because it's a big one, and we need to know more about it and also, i think we ought to be questioning the loyalty of this president to be involved in this sort of thing and certainly his family. it looks bad. all right, to a fox news alert, at least five police officers injured and hundreds detainedded as destructive protests rage in france for a second straight night. will: huge crowds taking to the street after the french government raised the retirement age without a vote from parliament. joey: lauren blanchard has the latest. >> reporter: more than 300 have been deindiana thed over who the nights of protest across france, most arrested in paris after setting fires and throwing stones and fireworks at police. the chaos comes after. french president emmanuel macron and his government forced through a change to the pension program, upping the retirement age two years from 62 to 64 for

many workers without a vote. trade union members have been to test concern protesting by the thousands, upset that macron used a special constitutional power by prime minister borne once his controversial plan wouldn't pass a vote. macron said the change is needed to save the pension program and help lower its dethe sit, but many union workers say this is a cost being put on the workers, and they are planning to strike until the government backs down or they force macron's party out. already sanitation workers have left trash piling on the sides of the road for nearly two weeks, and the unions are calling on others to refuse to work. no confidence motions have been filed against macron and his government and are expected to be debated on monday. it is the unlikely they will pass, meaning the pension change will become law are, but if they do, it would be the first time in 60 years the government of france would be forced to resign. will, rachel, joey?

rachel: wowment. thank you so much, lauren. will: potentially huge implications for the government of france, but i can't help see what's happening in france and think, okay, in the u.k., one of the biggest debates they actually have in governance is over how much the government can hand out when it comes to health care. now in france you see this level of passion when it comes to raising your retirement age concern can. rachel: by two years. will: and all i'm saying is you're looking at a people completely dependent upon their government. joey: and what does it mean for us? our government is currently deciding how heir going to the move forward on social security, and what do people in america concern and really of it was not the intelligent, but who have relied on the government for decades now and a system that is broken and running out of money. rachel: yeah. we are running out of money, and there have been talks about raising that age here as well. i think what maybe is different is kind of what you talked about, will, the sense of entitlement that happens when, you know, that takes over when

you have this many years of being under sort of socialist, manny state governments and -- nanny state governments. i think most of us have kind of figured out that we probably won't have anything by the time we retire, certainly our kids probably won't, or that it's going on the greatly diminished. i think in that regard, you know, americans may be looking at social security and understand the problems with our government better than they do and are willing to take more responsibility. let's hope so. will: yeah, let's hope is so. now we move to this, fox news alert, a terror attack has been prevented. an isis support allegedly plotting to kill police during yesterday's st. patrick's day parade in new york. how officers discovered his terror the ties and stopped his plans. rachel: plus, one of biden's op the ranking health officials who wants to normalize gender-affirming therapy, whatever that means, make makes a shocking admission in a

rachel: we're back with your headlines starting with a fox news alert. a st. patrick's day terror plot foiled. the feds say this guy is an isis support orer who threatened to kill police officers expect mayor at the annual holiday parade in yonkers, north of new york city. the suspect sent multiple threats to police. one read, quote, i will crucify yonkers cops and their bosses. it will be a horror scene. prosecutors say the suspect has a history of disturbing online posts. overseas the kremlin lashes out after the international criminal court puts out an arrest warrant for vladimir putin. the icc accuses the russian president of committing war crimes for deporting ukrainian children to russia. moscow does not recognize the court, and president biden says the charges are justified but points out that the u.s. is not a party to the court either.

now to a fox business alert, emergency loans to banks spiking at record levels after last week's collapse of silicon valley bank and signature bank. the federal reserve giving out a record $153 billion to banks this week. that's significantly higher than the previous record of just over $# 10 -- 110 billion in loans during the 2008 financial crisis. it's also 3,000% more than what banks borrowed last week. and those are your headlines. joey: that's a lot of money. you know, in 2008 that was a big deal. everyone's like, oh, it's okay. rachel: do you know what's so funny? i watched an old speech that sean and i gave back in 0 the 19, and we were complaining about the $19 trillion in debt, and now that's over 30. [laughter] joey: yeah. rachel: it's funny how these numbers just start to mean nothing. joey: where you live through a couple years where our government spends $7 trillion, $8 trillion, $10 trillion, it

just found like funny money. doesn't sound real anymore. will: the fed scheduled to perhaps raise rates again this week, so this banking crisis, i'm afraid, is only just beginning. let's move to this, assistant secretary of health rachel levine, you are familiar, transgender department head in the biden administration, gave a speech this week saying he's happy he waited until transitioo transition until after he had kids e. i think his kids are now -- rachel: they're grown adults. will: they're grown cults. so what he had to say in the speech was he appreciates the fact that he got to be a parent and that he didn't transition before that opportunity. which ignores fact that this whole trend is being pushed upon children who would be denied that same blessing the life of having kids. take a look at rachel he -- levine and what he had to say. >> you know, my transition was

very different for many reasons, professional and mostly personal reasons. i transitioned over ten years, okay? if most people don't take that long. i have no regrets. if i had transitioned when i was young, i wouldn't have my children. i can't imagine a life without my children. i don't know, if i was 15 now, i don't know if i would have taken so long. rachel: did his transition -- to me, i don't see that he looks like a woman. he looks like he's just wearing a wig, and i've seen some good transitions, adults that look like real women. but anyway, the point is that young women and young men in their teens are being encouraged by what they're calling, what he's calling life-affirming or, you know, genderrer-affirming transitions. and when they do that, what happens is they will become infertile often, their bones will become brittle because they're taking puber orty -- puberty blockers. if you're a boy, your genitals

aren't going to grow properly. so when you want to perhaps transition back which is something that's happening which our government is not follow ifing those cases closely enough, if you look at europe, they've already turn around on gender transition trend saying, wait a minnesota, we should not do this with children. let's wait until they're older to decide. but, boy, our government, the biden administration is just doubling down on this mutilation of children before they're 18. joey: you know, hypocrisy is isn't new to that person. if i remember correctly, that's the same person that was health secretary, i can't remember which state now -- rachel: pennsylvania. joey: -- and put they, them, his, her, whatever he wants to be, put his own mother into -- pulled his mother out of a retirement home during covid and then old the everyone, oh, nursing homes are fine, there's no reason to panic, advocated for no one to do that while behind the scenes that's what he was doing, she was doing, it was

doing, i don't know the where i'm supposed to go with that. [laughter] that's hypocrisy, and it is the their legacy and then they go and say, oh, you know, i'm glad i waited until i had kids. but, you know, if you're 15, just go ahead and get it done, why not? idea that you can transition someone's sex or gender at all is a little bit complicated, but to do it before pube orty is absolutely mutilation concern the. will: to point on the pronouns just for what it's worth, i'm not interested in cruelty, i'm only interested in reality. if a person wants to change their name, i happily honor it, but i don't get to change the accomplish language based upon their own subjective opinion. joey: that's right. will: and now i'm not trying to be cruel, that's why i choose my pronounce accurately and precisely when i refer to a person. not to be mean or deny their reality, but to reflect actual reality. now, when it comes to kids, there's a new study that says gender dysphoria is a thing,

it's largely something that kids grow out of with puberty, so you don't make life-altering changes before this moment. you don't push that upon children. finally, joe biden gave that, you know, interview this past week with where he talked about ron desantis in florida, and he called it cruel to stop kids from going through pre-puberty transition. i think he has it upside down, exactly opposite. rachel: yeah. will: in fact,s it's cruel to encourage kids to change who they are before puberty. rachel: and they are encouraging it, and that's the thing people need to take note of. it isn't just these kids are presenting like this, there's a whole culture behind it that is pushing it. and the children who genuinely having this gender kiss fore ya, as you said, they grow out of it, they need counseling, not surgery. will: still ahead, six months, that's how soon isis could carry out an attack on the u.s. according to one top commander. general don baldic reacts to!

♪ >> how long would it take isisk to generate the capability to conduct external operations? >> they can coan external operation against u.s. or western interests abroad many if under six months with little to no warning. joey: defense officials sounding the alarm on capitol hill voicing concerns the afghanistan branch of the islamic state terror group ooh isisk could attack american assets abroad within six months. here to react is retired brigadier general who commanded special forces units curl ten tours in afghanistan, general congress bolduc. general, thank you for joining us this morning. we all remember what happened in afghanistan not that long ago. where are we? are we still safe and is this still a threat? >> well, i don't believe that we're safe particularly under this administration with its failed foreign policy and homeland security policies.

but this is just a cause and effect. remember, isis wasn't even inning afghanistan until -- in afghanistan until obama changed his policy in 20 the 13 and '14 and gave them the opportunity to go there. so if they went there, they certainly can leave there and do things from there. and remember, isis is a worldwide threat across africa, many other countries. they already have this capability. their ideology is worldwide, and they can influence their supporters, people that follow them, you know, very significantly. and the united states is left, you know, holding the bag because of weak national leadership. and congress and these generals sit there every year, you know, i love these testimonies, it's nothing but political theater, talk about the blinding flash of the obvious. we knew exactly what was going to happen when we did that terrible withdrawal from afghanistan. and we've just empowered china, russia, north korea, iran.

our borders are open. we've stopped 98 terrorists coming into this country, but what about the ones we don't know about that nobody's asking any questions about, particularly this administration? joey: yeah, certainly, it certainly count help that iran and saudi arabia are now looking to be bud keys. we should have played a bigger role in that, obviously. we're going to move on to topic who the here. the pentagon says no ed that china is providing lethal aid to the russia. that's what the white house and pentagon are saying. but there's a politico article here that says russian entities also received 12 shipments of drone parts from the chinese companies, 12 the tons of chinese body armor, and in the article it also says they believe they received lethal arms. do you think that china's supporting russia with lethal weapons? >> oh, i absolutely co, and i think it's -- do, and i think it's irresponsible for the pentagon to even deny it. china has -- you know, you only have to go back to the korean war to see how china has

interfered with the u.s. conducting my kind of warfare or any support to warfare other countries, you know, to promote free come can. so, yes, of course they're doing it. it's another cause and effect, and it rises from bad leadership, bad foreign policy, bad policy here at home. and you guys covered it earlier in your show. we have a high debt, our economy is not good, and the safety and security of america is not good. so when we're weak here, we're going to be weak everywhere else, and china knows this, and they're taking advantage of it. joey: general, in your opinion, is the united states in a proxy war with russia and china right now? >> oh, absolutely. they absolutely are. we've decided to go with a long-term war, right? so that puts us in a proxy war. they're going to support their guy, we're going to support our guy, and, you know, united states is going to do it without any real policy and strategy explained to the people of the

united states. and they're just going to be the muddling through, which is what they've done from the gunning. they did nothing concern from the beginning. they did nothing to prevent it, and now they're just muddling through, throwing money at the problem. and sooner or later, unfortunately -- and i cread this -- they're going to start allowing people at the problem. we know this. joey: without a leadership, do you fever it will change to a hot war? >> i certainly do. everything in america is going to continue to go down hill without a leadership change. that's why the 2024 elections are so darn important. we need strong leadership. we've not to change the direction of this country. we've got to get rid of political appointees that are just a bunch of yes men, military generals and admirals that are just a bunch of yes men. none of these guys came up and raised their hand on afghanistan, any of them, the at the beginning. so we've got a lot to do, and it starts with changing the administration in 2024. joey: general bolduc, ten tours leading troops in combat, and,

you know, you didn't say what i want to hear, but you probably said the truth, so i appreciate you. >> all right, my friend. and thank you for your with service too. i am glad to be interviewed by you because i haven't been yet, and i'm very proud of you, and i'm very honored for your service, so thank you very much and god bless you. joey: yes, sir. thank you for your service and thanks for joining us. all right, coming up, insane video showing the moment a stolen jeep crashes into a school bus full of kids, and the suspect then takes off running. how police eventually took him down and, thankfully, no one was hurt. but first, a new batch of twitter files tackling the great covid lima chien showing how a group of stanford researchers lobbied to suppress the facts. dr. jay batchly ya has been fighting misinformation throughout the entire pandemic. he's going to react right here next. ♪ you're giving me such sweet loving. ♪ sweet loving, sweet loving ♪

vaccine-related illnesses or celeb i the deaths. c. jay bhattacharya is professor of medicine at stanford university, he joins us now. doctor, this is all so troubling. we have government, act chemoya, corporations, many of them who who profited from lockdowns and vaccines, all organizing in secret to the have this unified message and then censoring anybody on twitter who countered that message. can you believe this? >> i mean, it's absolutely shocking, especially since it happened at my university. rachel: yeah. >> i mean, what happened, rachel, is it was government contracts with stanford researchers to basically, to censor americans' first amendment rights. and, you know, they weren't just censoring lies, they were censoring true facts. the fact that after you've had covid and recovered, you actually have considerable immunity. they censored that the. if a young man had myocar kites and posted it, they censored

that -- myocarditis. in march of 2021 if you said online that the you were worried that there were going to be thing vaccine mandates or vaccine passports, they censored that also. it is an absolutely shocking violation of first amendment rights of americans and, actually, i think it harmed public health considerably. rachel: of course it did. matt tie yee e by said real testimonies about real side effects as misinformation from true stories of blood clots from astrazeneca vaccine to a new york times story about recipients who contracted a blood kiss order. they also said some jokes had to be censored because they were troubling. let's look big picture at this because, what i said,st the unbelievable that our government was subcontracting. they're not allowed to do that, there has to be accountability for that. but the other group that was complicit in my opinion, doctor, and you can refute me if you think i'm wrong, were. >>s who were silent are, who were so afraid to step forward.

i feel like people like you were, like, you know, very few numbered and attack thed for it. if more. >>s had come -- if more. >>s hat concern if more doctors had come together and said we need to tell the truth, wouldn't that have made a difference? >> i mean, it might have made a difference, for sure, clail. i agree with you. i think the problem here is it's not just that they censored, censorship is reputational damage. rachel: right. >> you have a misinformation label put on you, now all you're no longer an accurate sense of information to the public even if you're a doctor or a professor. i think a lot of doctors, a lot of academics, a lot of people who potentially should have stood up were afraid about that reputational damage. rachel: are they rethinking that,. >> the? are you hearing doctors who maybe were silent and scared now saying, wow, there's been so much damage to our reputation

and the level of trust that the american people have in us as doctors or public health officials that we're not going to let this happen again and they're organizing in that way? >> i mean, i think it's still in the balance, rachel. i think there's a lot of doctors who were very frustrated. many have written to me during the pandemic saying they were frustrated to stay silent. but are they going to push back? that remains to be seen. i really hope so. rachel: and is it the hospitals? is it the licensing? what are they so afraid of? i know you talk about reputational damage, but who is the group that is threatening to ruin your rep asian? -- reputationing? >> doctors have lost their jobs over speaking up about natural immunity, about vaccine injuries. and it's many, many groups. like, you know, for instance, people who lost their admitting privileges to hospitals. in california there's a bill, a allow actually -- a law actually that threatens doctors' licenses if they speak up and tell patients, well, this vaccine might not be for you.

but that that law now is stayed by a state court, but we'll see if that sticks, or a federal court. we'll see if that sticks. i think that it's even more the per e sense that there's going to be some harm, this amore if nows idea that, look, there are all these bodies that the i need to, like, practice and keep my reputation intact that might turn on me. that's happened through the pandemic. and that censorship engine essentially uses that fear to keep people silent, and it's been very, very effective, rachel. rachel: yeah. it's something that has to change in this country. a lot of vaccine -- a lot of people regret taking those vaccines because theyn't can't have more -- they didn't have more information. dr. jay bhattacharya, thanks for coming on and, always, for your with courage. joey? joe: thanks, rachel. we're going to begin with headlines. in upstate new york, a police chase ends with a violent crash. a driver in a stolen jeep slams right into a school bus. thankfully, all 17 kids onboard were okay.
